Jean-Luc Godard
When I have a low budget I always try to make it a lesson in economy.
Jean-Luc Godard
The invention of photography. For whom? Against whom?
Jean-Luc Godard

Jean-Luc Godard
Action can make you laugh. But just because you are glad. Even if there is no meaning.
Jean-Luc Godard
If we think today the way TV is ordering us to think, we think of Einstein as someone modern. Stravinsky is modern music, but it came at the time of Birth of a Nation, which is an old movie.
Jean-Luc Godard
A critic is a soldier that fires on his own men.
Jean-Luc Godard
Give me more. Let's do what has not been done.
Jean-Luc Godard

Jean-Luc Godard
Living, it can be sad too.
Jean-Luc Godard
I make film to make time pass.
Jean-Luc Godard
In the beginning there was not even talking. In movies, there was no need for that. Because it was more evident if there was no talking. Only in sports does there remain this fervor, which can even become violent. There's this desire to see something big.
Jean-Luc Godard
It makes me laugh when you bring two things together which have nothing to do with one another.
Jean-Luc Godard

Jean-Luc Godard
In films, we are trained by the American way of moviemaking to think we must understand and 'get' everything right away. But this is not possible. When you eat a potato, you don't understand each atom of the potato!
Jean-Luc Godard
People like to say, 'What do you mean exactly?' I would answer, 'I mean, but not exactly.'
Jean-Luc Godard
Because my movies are not successful, they are not shown. So I make a living from the budget.
Jean-Luc Godard
Now at my age I understand how sad it must have been for some directors or actors at the time the talkies began. Because, really, a whole continent disappeared.
Jean-Luc Godard
Photography is truth.
Jean-Luc Godard
The fact is that, unless you are very good, most first movies are too long, and you lose your rhythm and your audience over two or three hours.
Jean-Luc Godard
